Karen's family is Catholic(Christian) but she was never baptised and is not religious. She took the side of the science and said, "we're just minuscule dots in the vast cosmic emptiness of the universe". Her Twitter feed is also filled with sciencey stuff mostly pertaining galaxies and such. Especially, nebulae which, we think, has something to do with her role as Nebula in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.
